Is that amount of time common to walk in places in the world where cars don’t dictate the layout of the community?
Im going to be making this walk tomorrow, no worries, I’m just curious if its normal in other places. Maps says its 1hour15minues for 2.3miles or 3.7Km.
I wouldn’t hesitate to walk that far for a library, but realistically I’d take my cruiser bike for that distance. I’ve heard people tend to cite around 15-20 minutes as the maximum walk length that is considered “walkable,” but I’ve often chosen walking longer distances than that even when other options were available. For dense urban areas, I’d rather walk that take a bus unless it’s really far. Sometimes I get passed up by the same bus 5 or 6 times along the way. I agree with others who have said that time estimate sounds way long.
